Why this home stands out
Built in 2023, this home skips the renovation math entirely — everything from the mechanicals to the finishes is current-generation. Five bedrooms across 3,408 square feet gives you genuine flexibility: a dedicated home office, a guest suite, a playroom, and still room to grow. That combination of size, newness, and a half-bath for guests is genuinely rare in this zip code.
PLEASANT POINT and the Norfolk real estate market
Peace Haven Drive sits in the 23502 zip code on Norfolk's east side — a quieter residential pocket that still keeps you well-connected to the broader city. Streets here are lined with single-family homes, and the pace feels unhurried without feeling remote. Norfolk itself is one of the most dynamic mid-size cities on the East Coast, anchored by a working waterfront, a thriving arts scene, and a military community that gives the city its distinct character. If you're searching norfolk va houses for sale and want something that feels like a real neighborhood rather than a subdivision carved out of a cornfield, this part of the city delivers. You're close enough to the interstate to reach Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, or Portsmouth in under twenty minutes, yet far enough from the tourist corridors that daily life stays calm. Norfolk is also one of the few Hampton Roads cities where walkable commercial strips, mature tree canopy, and genuinely diverse architecture coexist block by block.
What's nearby
Hunts Pointe Park is just 0.4 miles away — an easy walk for an afternoon outside — and both Woods of Avalon Park and Woodstock Cove Park are under a mile, giving you three distinct green spaces to rotate through. For dinner or a casual night out, Haven Inn Bar & Grill is less than a mile from the front door. Families with active kids will appreciate the cluster of youth sports options nearby: Top Flight Gymnastics Camp, Hampton Roads Sports Academy, and Excalibur Gymnastics are all within 0.9 miles, making after-school logistics significantly easier.
For different buyers
For military families relocating
USCG Base Portsmouth and USCG Finance Center Chesapeake are both eleven minutes from 434 Peace Haven Drive — a commute that holds up across shift changes and early musters. A VA loan can make a 2023-built, five-bedroom home more accessible than many families expect, and the extra square footage means you're not scrambling for space when a PCS move brings extended family into the picture.
For families upgrading
If your current home has outgrown your family, 3,408 square feet with five bedrooms and three and a half baths gives everyone room to breathe. A 2023 build means you're not inheriting anyone else's deferred maintenance — the roof, HVAC, and systems are all fresh. Searching for houses to buy in Norfolk that can actually fit your whole life? This one is worth a serious look.
